COPPER SKIN, OAKEN LUNGS releases in less than a month! This short novel has a bit of everything, but I like to think of this as a story about people trying to make the best of a bad situation. Those efforts don't always work as hoped, but they are never in vain.💙📚🪐

And you can bet that the cat startles a person when it shoves something off a shelf for no reason, too.

Can't reply to every comment but just wanted to add that I appreciate all the reassurances. I was going to talk about my writing & share the stories I read and love anyway—but it's nice to see that so many others are going through similar thoughts and are so supportive of these outlets. 💙

Yeah that's kind of what I was attempting to say. Like, trying to draw a line between ignoring all this and just choosing not to engage in *this space*. Because I prefer to that from this—and engage with the rest elsewhere. Idk, the words are hard lol.

Total silence doesn't feel right, and too many people (especially in the US) aren't aware or don't care because it's not affecting them (so far).
I will be at the polls. If I can, I will join local protests and volunteer my time at the polls again. In the meantime, I'd like to talk about books.

For me, this is a bookish space, and that is what I intend to keep it as. I will continue to share my books, because I need to; I will continue to share other authors' stories, because we need to support one another.
But I wanted to at least say that 🇻🇪 🇬🇱 and 🧊 were on my mind.
